Not all gloom and doom!

WOOHOO!

Did I say that out loud?!?

Jo and I went down the new place last night and took some photos of the building as usual, but we were both amazed by the fact the builders have started on the roof now!!

Here are the obligatory before and after photos...

When we had our second viewing last October...


And the same (ish) view last night...


Jo took some photos of the flowers , so here are a couple of them..

..Some Peonies..


..and some others I don't know the name of..


Going back to the building again...

...I decided to go up on the scaffolding to have a look at what had been done up top, wow! It's coming on so fast!

Action shot...


And a random shot of me going into the main run...

What a beautiful place you have!

The pink flowers are Foxglove, also known as Digitalis, and Ruth thinks the yellow flowers are Euphorbia. This is a fabulous bed of flowers!

I'm so sorry to hear about Hattie. It's hard to lose a fave pet like that.
Your building is coming along splendidly!...and Jo takes great pictures. I love bug (or worm or spider) pictures. I'm in LA now, working, so I won't do blog posts very often - no time!

Thanks Don, you're right though, it's a really tranquil place (when the builders aren't working!). We are straining at the bit to move in - just have to wait for the builders to finish I guess! lol!

Thanks Connie, yes it was horrible! We just want to move in now - can you guess!?!?

I hope you'll keep us all updated - all sounds VERY interesting!
